Final answer:
To apply a white background with font color 1 in Excel, select the desired cells, right-click to access 'Format Cells', choose a white fill under the 'Fill' tab, select font color 1 under the 'Font' tab, and click 'OK'.
Step-by-step explanation:
To apply a white background and font color 1 (which typically refers to black) in Excel, follow these steps:
- Select the cells where you want to apply the formatting.
- Right-click on the selected cells and choose 'Format Cells' from the context menu.
- In the 'Format Cells' dialog box, click on the 'Fill' tab to select a white background (if it's not already set as the default).
- Next, click on the 'Font' tab.
- Select the color black or choose the color you wish to apply to the text, often font color 1 indicates black.
- Click 'OK' to apply the changes.
This will change the background of the selected cells to white and the text color to black, or whichever color you've chosen as font color 1.
